    Scales coming in would be for predominantly lb but he can also play cb , jullien is weeks away so then at cb that gives us welsh , jullien , stafelt , with bitton and scales who can cover there , rb am happy with juranovic and ralston , lb we will have taylor and scales i expect boli to go , midfield is fine , i think if christie goes then lovric comes in but if not in the summer lovric i think will come in January and i think if the greek comes in then griff or ajeti go out on loan! If edouard goes then i think nisbett comes in.

    It’ll be bare minimum. The thing that will decide who we sign will be the results this week and what the huns do in terms of buying or selling players.

    We only aim to be marginally above them with anything else considered a waste.

    I would be well happy to have him, provided we could offload Bain and Barkas.

    He was an absolute disaster against Galatasaray.

    I always thought Clarke was one of if not the worst keeper in the League, always looked heavy footed and like he couldnt get off the ground or dive. McCrorie when at Livingston, Pereira who was at Hearts or the guy at St Mirren at the weekend are only ones worse I can think of recently.

    Pereira ended at Huddersfield and they nicknamed him the hologram :56:

    He was trash.

    Looking at his record now loaned out for years and seemed to get a few games and dropped at every team nd then loaned to a different team, Hearts surprsingly the team who gave him the most games.

    Now signed for a Dutch team and starting for them, be interesting to see how long he lasts there before being found out. * would make Barkas look like Oliver Kahn.

    Thats incredibly harsh.

    Hes a good shot stopper IMO. Pereira was other levels of trash.

    Really worried about our depth.

    Ange keeps making the point but we are asking a lot of a select group of players, its so early in the season and we cannot expect Kyogo and the likes to play 60 games. It just isn't sustainable.

    LB
    CB
    CM
    LW

    Needed. We wont get that before the window shuts but thats the bare minimum.

    Defence needs so much work still.. relying on youngsters even if they are doing well for now is madness...

    Also need more height in the team.

    Two commanding CB's with a bit of pace, if youre oot there, reveal yourself. I'd like a box to box CM.

    Need a left back (although credit to Montgomery tonight) and a centre half who will come in straight away and do a job to compete with Starfelt.

    Was willing to give the guy a chance but he's too much of a risk atm.

    Left wing is another position that needs filled this window.

    We knew that it wouldn't all be fixed in one window, but we still need more this window.

    Our defence is a disaster. An injury or two and we could be lining up with Bitton, Starfelt and Montgomery as starters.

    The midfield needs strengthened. We still lack energy and physicality in there.

    And again in attack we're an injury or two away from scraping the barrel.

    No chance we can properly compete on 4 fronts with this squad.

    Ive posted in the suggestions thread but a B2B CM with some strength and pace is needed. For europe in particular. That game passed Rogic and Turnbull by, tonight.

    McGregor was left doing the work of 3 players.

    What we have is a board that have short sleeved shirts. What we need is a board who wear big Ange jersey's
